Cracking Windows Logon Password.(Hacking SAM file) Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
SAM File - Contains the user names and password hashes for every account
on the local machine, or domain if it is a domain controller.
-What are password
Hashes?
Actually when we enter password in Windows Logon Tab, Windows encrypts our password using an encryption scheme that turns our
password into something that looks like
this:
6546d1s3s3fs3fl23k32da56s42166d55se
SAM file can be found under
C:(default OS drive) -> WINNT -> System32 -> Config -> SAM.
Troubleshooting : While copying SAM file it shows an error of
"Access Denied" or "File in Use". Actually copying of SAM file is restricted by Windows.
There are many alternatives to copy SAM
file.
[1] You can boot your system in Dos mode or using bootable cd.
[2] After booting in
the Dos mode type the command "copy c:\windows\system32\sam.txt d:\" .Type the command without quotes.
[3]Open the Sam.txt file using a small utility called
"SamInside" which can be downloaded from google.com.Just goto google.com
and type "download SamInside" to download the SamInside
utility.
After opening the file with SamInside,you will get the actual password of windows.
-------------Thats it and you will be done-------------
a.What you need to do is to run compmgmt.msc
b. And click on local users and groups.
c. Once you've gotten here you need to open up the 'users' folder.
at this point i am walking along with you and notice that there are several
major security holes dealing specifically with the
password:
1. double clicking on the any user name allows you a list that looks
something like
this:
"user name"
full name: -----------------------
|__________________|
description: -----------------------
|__________________|
--
|_| user
must change password at next logon
--
|_| user cannot change password
--
|/| password never expires
--
|_| account is disabled
--
|_| account is locked out
"ok" "cancel" "apply"
ok if you can get past my cheesy drawing, i must ask, did you notice that
the "password never expires" box is checked? if you did, then you may
have
realized that this means that you can also uncheck it!
2. if ure paying attention, you'll see that the 'user must change password
at next logon' box is unchecked. if you put a check in this box of
course,
when you shut down the system will prompt for a new password!
3. going back to step c.,
right click on any account and notice the dialoge that appears:
set
password...
all
tasks
delete
rename
properties
help
i think you can handle it from here
ps. i wonder if you can access this data if this stuff is locked to the user
by the admin by going in through the command prompt. i doubt it but if
neone
finds a way let me know.
